Display Of Choice Goods
Program.

Il Next Tuesday the State Board of Pharma
CIV will hold an examination at the Board o
Trade rooms for the granting of certificate
of registration. The board at present con
sists of C. j. Burtin, of Fredonia, president
In. F. Bryant, of Lincoln, secretary, g.
Crandle, treasurer, and J. l. Taylor. Their
will be a number of applicants before tn
board, probably more than at any prevlou
examination. The days work will commence
at o'clock in the morning and continue ur
til in the evening. The rooms will be com
fortably supplied with writing desks and al
effort will be made to add as much comfor
as possible to the situation. The board seems
to be winning the reputation o.
preparing more difficult examinations every
year and the boys will be given as good g
show as possible for a creditable result.
The Kanses Pharmaceutical Association
will convene "Wednesday. next at. Crawford's
opera house. The session will last during
hat, and the following day. The event has
be en- looken upon with interest by the drug.
gists of the city, and they have been making
all the arrangements necessary forentertain-
/! ing their friends of the profession in a most
royal manner.
1t is anticipated that the attendance will
be much larger than ever before. The asso-
citation is growing rapidly, and at this meet
ing there will be a large number
at applicants for admittance. The
fact that the State Board holds meeting
the day before the association convenes will
also add to the number in attendance of the
profession. Another thing will perhaps
bring large number to this meeting. 1t is
the unequaled display of chemicals, fluid and
solid extracts, powdered drugs, pharmaceuti-
cal specialties and surgical appliances by the
manufacturers, presenting as good facilities
for buying as could be secured by going to
the eastern establishments, and thus saving
both time and expense. 1t is unsafe to even
attempt guess at the number that will
probably be in attendance, but there seems
to be o doubt that the city will be visited
by several hundred druggists.
In addition to the routine business quite a
mum Der of papers carefully prepared by the
best of the profession will be read and topics
for discussion introduced All questions will
be of such character as to be of interest to
the public thus giving entertainment to all
spectators.
Already quite large display of exhibits
have arrived. Companies in New York,
Philadelphia, st. Louis, Chicago and in fact
all the larger commercial and manufacturing
points are represented both by goods and
agents. Some of the agents have been in
the city for oser week making prepare
tions to appear before the association with
winning card. The toilet goods and
perfumery display is especially fine, repre-
senting several companies. All the exhibits
will be in the opera house, where they can be
seen by all.
The association extends a special invita-
ton to the ladies of the city to be in attend
ance. 1t is thought that the elegant display
of fin goods is enough to spread the belief
that they will be present in numbers. The
doctors of the city are also requested to at
tend just as much as their business will allow.
